Thanks for the unexpectedly large response. I could use a few more
recommendations about which models of aircraft are particularly well suited
to being used as a trainer. Also, I could really use tips on buying and potential sources of good used
aircraft. Thanks! Craig

Craig,
Strange as it may sound, there aren't 100's of models to chose from
regarding a trainer. You've ruled out the C 150, 172..so that kind of
leaves the Cherokee and possible one or two others. As for where to
find one, you've got Aerotrader, Ebay, the local FBO corkboard and I
suggest doing a Google for Used Planes.

Not to rain on your parade, but you might want to get a few lessons in
some different planes before you go spending the kind of cash you guys
will need to part with.
Speaking of, have you added up all the costs you will be faced with ie
a tie down, insurance, club set up fees, any immediate repairs your
plane will need, headsets etc......
